  We didn't try for about 4 cycles after I went off the pill so i don't know what would have happened, but we are close with two couples who got lucky literally their first month.

  I was on BCP for 14 years almost to the day, I went off of them June 15th, got AF June 18th, Ovulated July 9th or 10th and got my BFP July 21st.  And that is given a family history of infertility.  It is possible but I think it is very important to remember that it can take 6-12 months for the avg. healthy couple and most importantly, relax and have fun!!!  GL!

  I have two friends who got lucky the first month, but it took me 11 months.  Our timing was almost always right, both of us are healthy with no signs of fertility problems.  Sometimes it simply takes that long.  I'm just saying that so you won't get discouraged like I did if it doesn't happen immediately!

  Technically no.  I allowed myself to have one cycle after stopping birth control before we TTC.  We did however get pregnant the first cycle TTC.  This was the second time.  With our second baby we got pregnant the first cycle as well.  Our first baby...well, it took 3 years to get pregnant with him.

  YUP! I took BCP on and off for 15 years.  I went off the pills in May, and AF never came, instead I got my BFP! Yeah! It was funny too because my doctor informed me he thought I might have trouble conceiving because of possible PCOS.  Our BFP was a joy and a relief.  GL
